Stabilized 30 µJ dissipative soliton resonance laser source at 1064 nm.

ABSTRACT: We demonstrate the first successful stabilization of a dissipative soliton resonance (DSR) mode-locked (ML) laser source using straightforward techniques. Our setup employed a figure-8 (F8) resonator configuration and a nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) to achieve stable mode-locking, generating 1064 nm rectangular pulses with a 3 ns duration at a repetition frequency of ~ 1 MHz. The pulses were boosted in an all-fiber amplifier chain and reached 30 µJ and 10 kW peak power per pulse at 30 W average output power. We addressed a critical gap in the literature by actively stabilizing key DSR pulse parameters: average output power (improved by a factor of 51), pulse repetition frequency (improved by 7583 using cross-phase modulation for synchronization), and pulse duration (improved by a fa
